contents The interaction of circularly polarized light with chiral matter and functional devices enables novel phenomena and applications. Recently, wafer-scale solid-state single-enantiomer carbon nanotube (CNT) films have become feasible and are emerging as a chiral photonic material platform thanks to their quantum-confinement-induced optical properties and facile scalable assembly. However, optical modeling, solver, and device design tools for such materials are non-existent. Here, we prepare wafer-scale single-enantiomer (6,5) and (11,-5) randomly oriented CNT films and create an optical material model based on measured experimental optical spectra. We also implement a highly-parallel graphic-processing-unit accelerated transfer matrix solver for general bi-anisotropic materials and layered structures. Further, we demonstrate reconfigurable chiral photonic devices in a heterostructure with phase change materials through machine learning-enabled efficient gradient-based inverse design and optimization. Our developed full stack of a chiral photonic material and device hardware platform and a corresponding high-performance differential-programming-enabled solver opens the door for future chiral photonic devices and applications based on single-enantiomer CNT films.
